Rochester Institute of Technology Top Questions

RIT fosters a lot of self-growth and a lot of imagination, and I like that most out of everything in the school. I like that there's a club of people who want to build and race cars-- and they do it. I was part of a club to learn Esperanto that shut down because we couldn't find someone on campus who could moderate us-- but there were people interested and we continuted to meet even though we didn't have club status. RIT is just a place where if you like to learn, you will.

For RIT, it's difficult to choose just one thing. I orginally chose to attend for the plentiful amount of opportunities and high degree of career orientation. With career fairs, co-ops, and so many established connections with RIT's profound name and many well-known companies, I am confident I'll be prepared for the "real world". However, from just being at RIT for a semester, I've become so thankful for the diversity of the people and cultures I've been exposed to. From international students, to becoming acquainted with deaf culture, it really is an enriching experience.

The best thing about my school is that you don't have to struggle in silence. You can get the help that you need atleast academically.

The type of people there. This is a tech school and you get a population of people who you would call nerds. I find this pretty great.

It wasn't too small and not too big, also the campus was planned in a sensible way, dorms on one side recreation in the middle and academics on the other side. It was important for me that things were easily accessible. Also the class sizes are some of the best I have ever heard of, you really get the bang for your buck in terms of student-professor ratio.

The sense of community contained within it. Most of the students aren't afraid to connect with other students to help one another achieve success.

The best thing about RIT is how much it prepares its students for life after college. The four to six years we spend here are meant to teach us what we need to know to survive on our own and lead independent lives. RIT's Co-op programs and internships allow the students to start making connections within their future areas of work before they actually have to pay bills and raise families.

I think the amount of clubs and activities that are available ais the best part of this school. If this school were only about your academic success, then you wouldnt last very long here. They are about personal and professional developement and that makes it very special to me.

My incentives to enroll at RIT were the state of the art technical facilities offered to all students, the focus on preparation for future employment, and the willingness of the school to give back. Even before my freshman year, I was offered to take part in a summer internship program which I consider one of the best choices of my life. The college not only offered me payment for work in my field, but a chance to adapt to the school and forge lasting connections with other students in the same year and older before even attending.

The entire staff is very helpful; all advisors and faculty I have interacted with have gone out of their way to make sure I am on the right track.

The best thing about RIT is their Co-Op program, we are required as undergraduate students to participate in a certain number of co-ops (determined by major) in order to be permitted to graduate. A Co-Op is a 10 week period in which a student will work within the industry instead of attending class.

I feel the greatest thing about my school is the Professors willingness to help students in need. Whether it be extra office hours for him/ her, staying after class or answering 30 emails a night from confused students.

The best thing about my school is what gets accomplished. The improvement of life, I think, is the overall goal of everything that happens at RIT. We have very inventive minds at RIT, and very capable people too. The co-op office (internship office) helps a lot with that. This office helps us get jobs as to what we are interested in and allows us time to see if we really want to persue what we want or change direction. RIT should stand for Real Innovation Today.

The faculty. They engender such a positive classroom environment that it can't help but be transferred to students' social environments.

I think RIT offers a huge amount of opportunity in it's class selection as well as it's emphasis on students working on sets and practically utilizing the tools taught in the classroom (for the film program).
